Nice job on the flatblack/primer. Reminds me of my 4dr.

Coming along nicely, should be a nice little project for ya, hope ya can fix the cancer

[whitecoupe91]

thanks for the 1st comment! I plan on doing a mini wire tuck but nothing major just to clean it up a bit.

[whitecoupe91]

The cancer isn't a problem for me since I can weld it just has to get nice out. I like the flat black 4dr I kind of wish mine was a 4dr (I like them better) I also plan on doing the blacked out head lights with maybe red for the highbeam instead of the yellow.

wow...you turn something ugly into sexy...

[whitecoupe91]

Thanks, means alot, it has a long way to go so hopefully I can keep this one for awhile lol. It had '90-'91 ex wheels just don't know if I want to put them back on it? The Acura rims are different and I haven't seen another CB with them either.

[xprojectcb7x]

its pretty clean dude, good start, and im with you, i dont think ive ever seen a cb with em

[accordtypeR]

Wow quite a transformation buddy...nice one indeed...are you gonna do the engine bay as well to complete the look.

[bluecb7]

Looking good. You and jdm_inspired have me thinking of going all satin black for now.

-relocated battery in the trunk (need to get a batt. switch)

So you can get in more than one pass next time? lol

[whitecoupe91]

Thanks for all the comments! I might do the engine bay if/when I do a wire tuck. Yeah so I can get more then 1 pass but I need to do better driving lol !!

I had to slide you some OHIO love mayne!

look forward to meetin you again!

BTW...your engine bay is rememberable

all I can think of is RED.....AEM CAI ..and MSD ignition goodies


I will keep a CLOSE eyeball on your CB.....check in from time to time to see what new goodies you added

[whitecoupe91]

Thanks man! Hopefully I can make it to some more meets lol!! Thanks for the comments about the red. I plan on painting the valve cover (I know lol) RED just to keep with the theme (red) and since my interior is (gawd awful) red.
